Eyes - Chapter 1

I am Shin Ryujin and I came from a rich family. Both my parents are into business so I don't really see them often at home.

Ever since I was a child, both my parents are very busy. They seldomly go home and frequently went to business trips abroad.

Luckily, I have my sister. She is 2 years younger than me and I must say I'm lucky to have her. Because without my sister, I would be alone.

It was kinda hard to grow up without a parent beside you because no one is there to support you. Especially in school events, only me and my sister support each other.

When I became a teen, I started my passion in dancing. I entered many dance competitions as I wanted to make my name big in the dancing industry. I know my parents will be against it so I kept it a secret from them.

My younger sister supported me. She was the only one who knew. She was always there in all my dance competitions. Her presence was enough to make me feel happy.

Dancing was something that makes me happy. It's where I can express the emotions I want to. Dancing makes me feel comfort I can never explain.

When I reached 20, an entertainment scouted me. You know, my manager saw me in a dance competition then the rest happened. Again, my parents didn't know anything about this either.

I was really practicing hard in order to be a good dancer. I felt happy, nervous and excited. I was getting closer in accomplishing my dream to be a great dancer in this industry. But suddenly life is a b*tch.

I got into an accident. A car accident to be specific.

I was riding back home when a truck crashed into our car. My driver was dead on arrival and I was lucky to survive the accident. Wait, should I still call myself lucky? I don't think so.

After that accident, when I regained my
consciousness that's when I realized I was in a nightmare.

I can't see anything. When I opened my eyes, I saw nothing. At first, I was stunned. Who wouldn't be stunned if they can't see anything once they open their eyes, right?

My mind couldn't process what's happening. I rubbed my eyes and opened it again but saw nothing. I repeated doing this but it remains the same.

I started shaking. I felt tears coming from eyes. That was the moment I became so scared. I realized that I was blind.

My sister was there, she saw how I devasted I am. The tears I tried to stop, starts falling. I can't accept what's happening to me.

I felt depressed. After breaking down in front of my sister, I didn't talk to anyone. I felt lonely. I felt that I was one with the darkness.

I was just starting to accomplish my dreams then this happened. How can I dance in this kind of state? How can I dance when I'm blind.

Dancing was my passion. It was the only thing I wanted to do. And how could I continue when I'm like this? I had no choice but to quit.

I was just stuck at home. Sitting on a chair, staring nowhere. What are the things I could do when I can't see? There's barely a few.

My sister who was in college had to take care of me. She was there to make me feel I'm not alone. I can't help myself but to pity her. It was a pity that she had me, a sister who is blind. I felt that I was a burdened for her.

For my sister, I started to continue my life. I tried my best to adjust even though it's hard. Many things have changed, now that I'm like this.

Three years had passed and now I have accepted my condition. I accepted that I would never see again.
